Ozark Chinquapin Tree Planting

Visitors are invited to view an Ozark Chinquapin tree planting. Sponsored by Missouri State Parks and the Ozark Chinquapin Foundation, the planting marks ongoing efforts to restore the Ozark Chinquapin (Castanea ozarkensis) to its native range. The planting follows the Ozark Chinquapin Foundation’s annual meeting, which allows researchers, educators and supporters to share history, status and research regarding the tree species.
